When you are using something like this, again, you will want to ensure that the water temperature is ‘warm’ – and be very careful using something like this, if you are in an area where water pressure can be a bit… unpredictable! Needless to say, you use too high a pressure, you are going to cause yourself a lot of pain. It also has a valve to allow to control water flow too. This means you can direct the flow of water through the douche or the shower. It can be attached permanently, so features a regulating tap. It features a 6 foot hose, along with 2 nozzles. The Clean Stream Deluxe Shower douche is one of the less complicated looking shower kits. With a bit of practice, they can be easy to use, but cleaning them can be a bit of a pain, as they are usually in smaller pieces, and trying to clean the hoses can be a bit of a nuisance – but they will leave you feeling much cleaner and confident – and that’s the whole reason we are using these, right? This type of douche could be worth looking into if you are someone who regularly enjoys some deeper anal play (so fisting or extra large dildos). Of course, this does mean that you need to be EXTRA careful when using something like this – which is why I recommend using a product that allows you to adjust the pressure. There’s no possibility for what I call ‘suck back’ (I’ll explain later) – and you can get a deeper clean, because you have more pressure coming out. The good thing about this type of douche, is that you get a consistent flow rate. Some can be permanently attached, others can be attached Ad Hoc (when you need it). Shower DoucheĪ shower douche will typically be a kit that will allow you to connect it to your existing shower or bathtub mixer tap. I recently upgraded to the Deluxe Anal Douche which has an additional nozzle to allow you to vary the water intensity. If you are looking for something to help provide a more ‘thorough’ cleansing – then a shower Douche might be for you.
I’ll detail how to use this successfully later on in this article. It’s simple to use, and very effective – making it ideal for people who have never used a douche before.
The first douche I ever bought was the Lovehoney BASICS douche. These are typically used for a shallower cleanse (although you can get some bulb douches with a larger nozzle to go a bit deeper). You fill the bulb with warm water and then insert into the anus, and squeeze the bulb to allow the water to enter. They are normally 2-piece kits – a squeezable bulb (usually made from rubber or silicone) into which you insert a nozzle. These are probably the most common type of Douche, and probably the cheapest and easiest to use. There are probably 3 typical examples of a douche: Bulb, Shower Kits & Water bags. Douching is typically normally associated with the vagina, with anal douching being called an Enema – however as most sex toy sites refer to them as anal douches, that is how we will refer to it for the rest of this article. It can be used for either medical or hygiene reasons. In laymen’s terms – a douche is a device used to introduce a stream of water into the body, usually vaginally or anally. It will have happened to everyone at one point, and sometimes things are just out of your control! So what is a douche exactly?
Which is understandable.įor some, it’s all about having the peace of mind, that when you start to explore and play ‘down there’ – you are not going to come across any nasty surprises – but let me stress this right at the start – It’s Natural! ‘Accidents’ can and will happen – the most important thing is to just shrug it off and move on. And whilst there are a certain number of people who don’t mind that – for the most of us, poop and sex don’t mix. We all know that’s where poop comes from.
I think it’s widely accepted by most people that the anus is a ‘dirty’ place, and you know, to some extent – I’ll agree. So make sure the shower is at the right temperature and then follow me… We can talk about orgasms but we can’t talk about anal cleanliness without getting a bit bashful.īut the simple fact is, it’s a practice that is widely done, and for some people, it’s an absolute necessity before any kind of anal play.īut what is douching? Is it necessary? Is it safe? I will share my experiences of douching in the hopes that it will educate, inspire and encourage more people to talk about it.
